Hello. I would greatly appreciate it if the following advertisement for a PhD student was posted on Ecolog.
Sincerely, Keith Edwards The Laboratory of Soil Biology, Department of Ecosystem Biology of the University of South Bohemia, Ceske Budejovice, Czech Republic, is looking for a Ph.D. student to work on a new grant-supported project dealing with plant-soil-microbe interactions. The focus of the project is on determining the role of plant C:N stoichiometry in affecting rhizosphere processes and functions, including changes to the quantity and quality of plant root exudates, soil microbial community composition, exoenzymatic activity, microbial N transformations, and mineralization of stabilized soil organic matter (rhizosphere priming effect). We are looking for an active, hard-working student, knowledgeable in soil biology/ecology or plant eco-physiology. In return, we offer a chance to work in well- equipped laboratories as part of a highly-motivated yet friendly team of senior scientists, students and technicians. Interested students should send a copy of their CV, as well as a letter explaining their area of interest and how it may relate to the project topic, to either: Eva Kastovska, Ph.D.(project PI) – [email protected] or Assoc. Prof. Keith Edwards, Ph.D. – [email protected] -- Open WebMail Project (http://openwebmail.org) WebMail PRF JCU
